I'm sure this is old news to some, but I was surprised to learn the Tyreke Evens was supposedly the driver in a drive-by shooting that lead to death of a man in 2006.  His cousin was sentenced to nine-to-20 years for being the shooter. I wonder if this effects his draft position at all, or will it be largely ignored. I'm actually a fan of Tyreke and think he is going to turn out to be in the same mold as wade and Rose. Just thought this was interesting news. Sorry if it is old and everyone knew it already.

“Being a Celtic is, every decision you make is about the team. Every cut you make is about the team. Every pass you make is about the team. You take yourself out of it. It’s not for everyone. If you don’t want to win, don’t want to play team basketball, and it’s more about you then you’re probably not a Celtic." Doc 2010

Good find. Yet another reason why I don't want him. I was comparing him before to a less athletic Tony Allen. And that was before I knew about this.

Evans isn't in Rose or Wade's class. He can't jump and won't be able to finish like them at the NBA level.

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

I hope that sticks.  I'm referring to him as Drive-By from now on.
